Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food
Author Talk with Elspeth Hay

Friday, May 8 at 11:00 a.m.
In-person in Community Rooms AB

As a girl, Elspeth Hay learned that we humans are a blight on the natural world. Her lived experience confirmed this story time and again—until the day she learned that we humans can eat acorns. Suddenly, things began to shift.

In her new book, Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food, Elspeth uncovers the ancient relationships between humans, our keystone nut trees, and fire—and the ways we can work together again to revitalize our world.

Copies of Elspeth’s book will be available for purchase after the presentation.
